Who we are

I am a proud Mexican-American mother of four with over 18 years of experience working with children in various capacities.

Our Multicultural Family

Together with my Argentine-American husband, we have created a family that is a vibrant mosaic of cultures, proudly intertwining Mayan, Mexican American, and Argentinian heritages. This rich blend has profoundly enriched our lives and fostered a deep appreciation for the beauty and strength found in cultural diversity. Our unity in diversity serves as a constant reminder of the importance of celebrating and valuing the unique perspectives that each heritage brings to our family and our community.

Experience

Over the years, I have witnessed firsthand the profound impact that access to high-quality early childhood education has on a child’s development. As a mixed-culture family, I’ve also seen the incredible benefits of raising children in a bilingual, multicultural environment—where diverse traditions are celebrated and community is strengthened through sharing and connection.

Vision

Because of all this, I decided to start my own program—a space where I can intentionally incorporate these values and offer them to families in our community. My goal is to provide a place where children feel a deep sense of belonging, a love of diversity and a strong foundation for lifelong learning.
